Delete Old Log Entries

People Planner logs it whenever it imports data by running a task specification. It also logs when a user deletes resources or events. If these log entries are never deleted, the LogEntry table continues to grow in size. Eventually this becomes a problem.

To clean up log entries and reduce the number of unnecessary files on your database server, you can create a task specification to delete old log entries. This is based on the same task specification functionality that is used for importing tasks and is set up in the same way.

To configure how far back People Planner should keep its log entries before deleting them:

  1. Go to Settings > System Settings > System.
  2. Set the value of the Keep log entries from the last months setting to the appropriate number. This is the number of months back for which you want to retain log entries.
  3. Click Save.
